    Anybody got any insight into why recons is doing multiple rapid fire passes like they are?  I’m not objecting because hey more data the better but this is a bit unusual no?

    Probably because they know something we don’t . Or they have no idea where it’s going and when the last 60seconds becomes reality. They will know how bad that area or areas will be

    Yeah not quite sure what to make of it. Every degree matters, especially since the trend has continued to be a more extended northward push. I don’t think this gets to 75W obviously…but some westward drift toward 70-71W could mean a greater chance of direct impacts in ENE/Atlantic Canada.

    Was just watching a live meteorologist with live feed on Lee . they are saying the shear broke the backside off and now it isn’t moving Wnw anymore , it’s now moving due W . They weren’t expecting that to happen . 

  3. Everything is still in play , so many pieces have to come together at the right time in order for this to be a fish storm . 
    this storm from Va to MA needs to be monitored over the next week . The storm is going to be Huge by the time it comes up north and a 50 mile shift to the west could end up being catastrophic to the coast with surge , wind , flooding ect

    Probabilistic Heavy Snow and Icing Discussion
    NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
    402 PM EDT Sun Mar 12 2023

    Valid 00Z Mon Mar 13 2023 - 00Z Thu Mar 16 2023


    The heaviest snow will likely occur in the interior northeast
    terrain including the Adirondacks, Catskills, Greens, Berkshires,
    Worcester Hills, Monadnocks, and Whites where WPC probabilities
    for 6 inches are above 80% on D2, and reach 50-80% for 12 inches
    in these same areas. In the valleys, snow totals will likely be
    less, but intense ascent could still prevent extreme shadowing on
    the e/ne flow, and WPC probabilities for 6+ inches are above 50%
    even in the lower elevations all the way up the coast of Maine
    despite that area being impinged upon by drier air and being more
    removed from the low center as it moves east instead of northeast
    late. For the I-95 corridor, there is good potential for a period
    of heavy snow to develop on the back side of the system near the
    coastal front, and while WPC probabilities for NY to Boston are
    pretty low for 2-4 inches, the guidance has trended a bit more
    aggressively for this area, and there are several members in the
    WSE plumes that suggest heavy accumulations even to the coast.
    While confidence in major impacts and heavy snow accumulations is
    greatest inland across the higher terrain, the potential still
    exists for a significant snowstorm for NYC to Boston as well.

    Basically they aren’t sure what’s going to happen yet . Everyone is still in for the possibility of a big storm but it’s wait and see !

  5. Completely untrue. The mandatory evacuation orders went out yesterday. 

    Yeah for people on the coast or in zone A . When it was suppose to be a cat 2 maybe a 3 . No one in zone 3 or “C” was told to leave because the surge wouldn’t be as bad with a cat 2/3 storm .
    This storm was Tampa / Panhandle up till yesterday . Not Naples , ft myers , Cape Coral .
    By yesterday people from Tampa were driving south and east the roads were packed .
    Not to mention the elderly who live in these areas .
    The people along the coast or close to it . Yes stupid shouldn’t be there . The ones who were told this wouldn’t be “ that storm “ it isn’t on them at all .


    .
  6. My parents are in Cape Coral right now , they were never told to leave , they weren’t evacuated. They are in zone 3 . Up till last night they were told it was only a high cat 2 maybe cat 3 that was going to hit Tampa , a lot of people stayed thinking it wouldn’t be that bad .
    When you tell someone 4 hours before it hits its now a cat 5 . It’s to late .
    That is on local , state and federal agencies.
    I can’t even put blame on meteorologists because they are only right 8% of the time with anything .

    Upton has me in southern brooklyn gusting to 70... do you see that as well on soundings?

    That’s with the current track . If this happened to  get stronger ( with everything it went through ) I can see it happening . Can we see hurricane gusts here in the tri State area ? I believe we are also in MOON tide , any significant coastal flooding you think .
